Get Ready for Assembly

You will go from site preparation to a finished barn in a couple of easy steps. Your shed kit contains valuable instructions on how to build it when it arrives, but here's what you need to know ahead of time.


Tools You'll Need

  • Roof materials: shingles or metal sheeting
  • Exterior paint
  • Floor materials if you did not purchase the optional floor kit
  • Tape measure
  • Drill and a #2 square drive bit
  • Step ladder
  • Speed square
  • Level
  • Chalk line
  • Hammer

Step 1: Site Prep

A level site is the most important step when it comes to preparing for your build. Your building will only be as level as the site it sits on. For this process to go smoothly, have the site fully prepared before the shed kit arrives.

How to Prep Your Site

Site prep

For Level Ground

  1. 1. Mark off an area 12 inches wider than the shed on all four sides.
  2. 2. Remove 3 to 4 inches of sod from the area you marked off.
  3. 3. Fill the area with no. 8 or no. 57 limestone.
  4. 4. Spread the limestone and make sure it is level.
Site prep

For Sloped Ground

  1. 1. Place treated 4x4s horizontally within the shed footprint. Space them approximately every 6 feet.
  2. 2. Raise the horizontal 4x4s by digging vertical 4x4s on high sides or concrete blocks on low sides.
  3. 3. Make sure all the 4x4s are level so that the platform for the shed is level.

Step 2: Delivery

The carrier will deliver your EZFIT Shed kit to your location. Plan to have at least two people at the delivery site to manually open the package and unload the kit pieces from the back of the truck.
